La fascinante historia de una niña heroica que pelea por su convicción de que el agua debería ser para todos.
Minni vive en la zona más pobre de Bombay, donde el acceso al agua está limitado a unas cuantas horas al día y en las llaves comunales hay largas filas. Aunque, últimamente, hasta ese poco acceso se ve amenazado por terribles cortes en el suministro y ladrones que roban el preciado bien, un acto que Minni atestigua por accidente una noche. Mientras tanto, en el rascacielos donde acaba de empezar a trabajar, descubre que sale agua de cada grifo y hay incluso una alberca en la azotea. Pero Minni también descubre ahí a uno de los jefes de la mafia del agua. Ahora debe decidir si exponerlo y poner en riesgo su trabajo, y hasta su vida. ¿Cómo algo tan sencillo como tener acceso al agua puede ser tan complicado?
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A New York Times Bestseller
The riveting story of a heroic girl who fights for her belief that water should be for everyone.
Minni lives in the poorest part of Mumbai, where access to water is limited to a few hours a day and the communal taps have long lines. Lately, though, even that access is being threatened by severe water shortages and thieves, who steal this precious commodity—an act Minni accidentally witnesses one night.
Meanwhile, in the high-rise building where she started to work, water streams out of every faucet; there’s even a rooftop swimming pool! Minni also discovers one of the water mafia bosses there. Now, she must decide whether to expose him and risk her job—and, maybe, her life.
How did something as simple as access to water get so complicated?
